Two weeks ago, these were freshly fallen petals! I’ve only lost about 10 petals, and I have 16 more that haven’t rooted yet. I call this a success!!

Did you just leave these out and they started growing roots?

#### DontH8Propogate replied on 2023-12-12

On soil but just on top. Sprayed them for about a week then left them alone and watered when the soil was dry!

Some succulents don’t do well with this! What kind?

Lavender pebbles

You have to use the stem to propagate those, I believe!
